About this itinerary
Walls, bridges and urban spaces become the main subjects of this walk. Street art and graffiti introduce Tbilisi’s alternative culture and reveal visual messages in the everyday city. This is a themed alternative to a classic sightseeing tour.
An ever-changing city canvas
Street works can appear, change or disappear. The value of the walk lies in understanding street art and its urban context, rather than seeing an unchanging set of images.
What awaits you
The Birth of Street Art in Georgia. We'll discuss how street art emerged, what motives and values drove the movement, and how the culture developed and improved, and where it has arrived today.
The Niko Movement. We'll pay tribute to Niko Pirosmani and his contribution to street art, and look at the work of his followers. We'll trace the evolution of hidden subtexts in street art and discuss how relevant these messages are today.
Street Art Festivals in Tbilisi. We'll stroll through the city's interesting nooks and alleys and try to 'read' the artists' visual messages on our own. Your guide will also tell you about the annual street art festivals in Tbilisi.
Murals and Graffiti. You'll understand the difference between a mural and graffiti, learn how you can express yourself on the city's streets, and find out how to act so that your drawing doesn't get painted over.
